Jesus: My dear people,
Today March 22, 2012, I want you to make available the statues: Our Lady of Fatima and Our Lady of Guadalupe with the glass, so people will honor Mary and pray the prayers as I have requested before the statue praying for the priests, the Church and the world.
Pray the prayers before the statues with glass for healings and blessings for your family, for your country, for the Church and the world. I promise special graces to those praying these prayers, and graces drawing them closer to My Heart and My Mother's heart. I want all to know My Mother's love as their mother. Put the statues with the glass in your homes and Churches, your schools and places of businesses and pray these prayers given to Fr. Carter, S.J., founder of Shepherds of Christ, in the prayer manual for the priests, the Church and the world. I am Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock.

Mary:
I am the
Queen of Peace. In these troubled times of
your country I am begging you give my message of
peace and holiness to your troubled country. I desire
my statue with the glass in your homes, schools,
Churches and businesses and pray the prayers Jesus
gave Fr. Carter 18 years ago.
Mary: My children,
You need
to make Jesus, the King and Center of
your homes, schools, Churches, businesses,
all places on the earth —
Satan is waging a war. Pray
the prayers as Jesus told
Fr. Carter before the statue.
Let this be a time of
bringing the love of Our 2 Hearts to
your world —
Please as your heavenly
Mother, I tell you to do as Jesus
said 18 years ago, spread these prayers and see they are
prayed all over the earth.
I am Our Lady of Clearwater
for all these years, I have appeared
to tell you, as the Mother of All and Queen of Peace that God
the Father wants this devotion to Our 2 Hearts —
Listen to Him and pray these
prayers —
Begin them in the Churches —
Look at the threats you are suffering —
Pray as Jesus told Fr. Carter
July 31, 1994
Words of Jesus to Members of
Shepherds of Christ Associates:"My beloved priest-companion, I intend to use the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ, and the movement, Shepherds of Christ Associates, in a powerful way for the renewal of My Church and the world.
"I will use the newsletter and the chapters of Shepherds of Christ Associates as a powerful instrument for spreading devotion to My Heart and My Mother's Heart.
"I am calling many to become members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. To all of them I will give great blessings. I will use them as instruments to help bring about the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. I will give great graces to the members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. I will call them to be deeply united to My Heart and to Mary's Heart as I lead them ever closer to My Father in the Holy Spirit."
- Message from Jesus to Father Edward J. Carter, S.J., Founder, as given on July 31, 1994,
feast of Saint Ignatius Loyola, Founder of the Society of Jesus (The Jesuits)
Mary: You are being
threatened more than you know with the
religious freedom issues. My children abortion is
wrong. Now this — pray these prayers before My statue
with the glass, pray fervently — God will help you —
I am Mary, Queen of Peace, Our Lady of Clearwater
I crush the head of satan with my heal.

R. The
Heart of Christ beats in the
hearts of men —
I had a
vision of a beautiful
beating heart — First I saw a map
and it was of the world and I kept
hearing the word — the pope — the pope —
Seeing the
connection of the whole
Catholic Church, I saw, like stations
all over the world where the churches
were united to the pope — It was vast —
the map of the world,
But the unity
was — unity one —
the Church, one, united under the
pope — The Church, the body of Christ —
one, holy, Catholic and Apostolic —
And I heard the word "pope"
united with all the Churches on
the map all over the world —
"pope" —
The map was blue
and the Churches
white — scattered on the map of
the earth and there was a little
red on the vision —
The blue was the
blue of my room
at home and the white the Churches —
Then a big red heart covered it all —
movement as it beated —
I can't even explain the heart —
It covered the map —
It was red and it sparkled with
light as it beat — I can't even
write about it, but I can see it
now, I cannot explain it because
It is beyond words —
R. The
heart pretty much covered the map.
It was so big —

1. Hymns. Hymns may be sung at any point of the prayer part of the meeting.
2. Holy Spirit Prayer. Come, Holy Spirit, almighty Sanctifier, God of love, who filled the Virgin Mary with grace, who wonderfully changed the hearts of the apostles, who endowed all Your martyrs with miraculous courage, come and sanctify us. Enlighten our minds, strengthen our wills, purify our consciences, rectify our judgment, set our hearts on fire, and preserve us from the misfortunes of resisting Your inspirations. Amen.
3. The Rosary.
4. Salve Regina. "Hail Holy Queen, Mother of mercy, our life, our sweetness, and our hope. To you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve. To you do we send up our sighs, our mourning, our weeping in this vale of tears. Turn, then, most gracious advocate, your eyes of mercy toward us and after this, our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus, O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary."
5. The Memorare. "Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but, in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen."
6. Seven Hail Marys in honor of the Seven Sorrows of Mary. Mary has promised very special graces to those who do this on a daily basis. Included in the promises of Our Lady for those who practice this devotion is her pledge to give special assistance at the hour of death, including the sight of her face. The seven sorrows are:
(1) The first sorrow: the prophecy of Simeon (Hail Mary).
(2) The second sorrow: the flight into Egypt (Hail Mary).
(3) The third sorrow: the loss of the Child Jesus in the temple (Hail Mary).
(4) The fourth sorrow: Jesus and Mary meet on the way to the cross (Hail Mary).
(5) The fifth sorrow: Jesus dies on the cross (Hail Mary).
(6) The sixth sorrow: Jesus is taken down from the cross and laid in Mary's arms (Hail Mary).

10. Prayer for Priests. "Lord Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock, we pray that in the great love and mercy of Your Sacred Heart You attend to all the needs of Your priest-shepherds throughout the world.

14. Prayer to St. Michael and our Guardian Angels:
"St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil.

Amen."
"Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God's love commits me here, ever this day be at my side, to light and guard, to rule and guide. Amen."
15. Pause for silent, personal prayer. This should last at least five minutes.
16. Act of consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
"Lord Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock, I consecrate myself to Your most Sacred Heart.

You reveal Your Heart as a symbol of Your love in all its aspects, including Your most special love for me, whom You have chosen as Your companion in this most important work. Help me to always love You in return. Help me to give myself entirely to You. Help me always to pour out my life in love of God and neighbor! Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You!
"Dear Blessed Virgin Mary, I consecrate myself to your maternal and Immaculate Heart, this Heart which is symbol of your life of love. You are the Mother of my Savior. You are also my Mother. You love me with a most special love as a member of Shepherds of Christ Associates, a movement created by your Son as a powerful instrument for the renewal of the Church and the world. In a return of love, I give myself entirely to your motherly love and protection. You followed Jesus perfectly. You are His first and perfect disciple. Teach me to imitate you in the putting on of Christ. Be my motherly intercessor so that, through your Immaculate Heart, I may be guided to an ever closer union with the pierced Heart of Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock."
17. Daily Prayers. All members should say the Holy Spirit prayer daily and make the act of consecration daily. They should also pray the rosary each day. They are encouraged to use the other above prayers as time allows.

Readings from Today
Exodus 32: 7-14
Yahweh then said to Moses, ‘Go down at once, for your people whom you brought here from Egypt have become corrupt. They have quickly left the way which I ordered them to follow. They have cast themselves a metal calf, worshipped it and offered sacrifice to it, shouting, "Israel, here is your God who brought you here from Egypt!" ’ Yahweh then said to Moses, ‘I know these people; I know how obstinate they are! So leave me now, so that my anger can blaze at them and I can put an end to them! I shall make a great nation out of you instead.’
Moses tried to pacify Yahweh his God. ‘Yahweh,’ he said, ‘why should your anger blaze at your people, whom you have brought out of Egypt by your great power and mighty hand? Why should the Egyptians say, "He brought them out with evil intention, to slaughter them in the mountains and wipe them off the face of the earth?" Give up your burning wrath; relent over this disaster intended for your people. Remember your servants Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to whom you swore by your very self and made this promise: "I shall make your offspring as numerous as the stars of heaven, and this whole country of which I have spoken, I shall give to your descendants, and it will be their heritage for ever." ’ Yahweh then relented over the disaster which he had intended to inflict on his people.
Psalm 106: 19-23
At Horeb they made a calf,
bowed low before cast metal;
they exchanged their glory
for the image of a grass-eating bull.
They forgot the God who was saving them,
who had done great deeds in Egypt,
such wonders in the land of Ham,
such awesome deeds at the Sea of Reeds.He thought of putting an end to them,
had not Moses, his chosen one,
taken a stand in the breach and confronted him,
to turn his anger away from destroying them.
John 5: 31-47
Were I to testify on my own behalf,
my testimony would not be true;
but there is another witness
who speaks on my behalf,
and I know that his testimony is true.
You sent messengers to John,
and he gave his testimony to the truth—
not that I depend on human testimony;
no, it is for your salvation
that I mention it.
John was a lamp lit and shining
and for a time you were content
to enjoy the light that he gave.
But my testimony is greater than John’s:
the deeds my Father has given me
to perform,
these same deeds of mine
testify that the Father has sent me.
Besides, the Father who sent me
bears witness to me himself.
You have never heard his voice,
you have never seen his shape,
and his word finds no home in you
because you do not believe
in the one whom he has sent.You pore over the scriptures,
believing that in them
you can find eternal life;
it is these scriptures that testify to me,
and yet you refuse to come to me
to receive life!
Human glory means nothing to me.
Besides, I know you too well:
you have no love of God in you.
I have come in the name of my Father
and you refuse to accept me;
if someone else should come
in his own name
you would accept him.
How can you believe,
since you look to each other for glory
and are not concerned
with the glory that comes
from the one God?
Do not imagine
that I am going to accuse you
before the Father:
you have placed your hopes on Moses,
and Moses will be the one
who accuses you.
If you really believed him
you would believe me too,
since it was about me that he was writing;
but if you will not believe what he wrote,
how can you believe what I say?

R. Babies are beautiful and
mostly people love to watch them — so
sweet and innocent —
It seems for the young they have a
life ahead of them and they can
think of living, of being in the moment,
But pains and disappointments can make
us soar and lose the desire to
fight for life, to live the Plan God
had for us —
Life is for living —
Living in oneness with God —
with love in our heart —
knowing how He planned the world
and created it harmonious
and with order and good things —
The first rebellion of men came from
Adam and Eve tempted by satan —
The fallen angels rebelled against God —
Satan said "I will not serve"
God so good to us
God was so good to Adam and Eve —
We are to be happy and see things
through the eyes of God.
Gospel from Today
John 5: 17-30
His answer to them was, 'My Father still goes on working, and I am at work, too.' But that only made the Jews even more intent on killing him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he spoke of God as his own Father and so made himself God's equal.
To this Jesus replied:In all truth I tell you,
by himself the Son can do nothing;
he can do only
what he sees the Father doing:
and whatever the Father does
the Son does too.
For the Father loves the Son
and shows him everything
he himself does,
and he will show him
even greater things than these,
works that will astonish you.
Thus, as the Father raises the dead
and gives them life,
so the Son gives life to anyone he chooses;
for the Father judges no one;
he has entrusted all judgement to the Son,
so that all may honour the Son
as they honour the Father.
Whoever refuses honour to the Son
refuses to honour the Father
who sent him.
In all truth I tell you,
whoever listens to my words,
and believes in the one who sent me,
has eternal life;
without being brought to judgement
such a person
has passed from death to life.
In all truth I tell you,
the hour is coming --
indeed it is already here --
when the dead
will hear the voice of the Son of God,
and all who hear it will live.
For as the Father has life in himself,
so he has granted the Son also
to have life in himself;
and, because he is the Son of man,
has granted him power
to give judgement.
Do not be surprised at this,
for the hour is coming
when the dead will leave their graves
at the sound of his voice:
those who did good
will come forth to life;
and those who did evil
will come forth to judgement.
By myself I can do nothing;
I can judge only as I am told to judge,
and my judging is just,
because I seek to do not my own will
but the will of him who sent me.
R. I saw the oneness of Jesus and His
Father today at Mass and it made
my heart burn —
I knew all the love I have for Jesus —
the way I know Jesus makes me
so much more intimately united to
God the Father and the Holy Spirit —
I remember 15 or more years ago
sitting before the tabernacle and
knowing my love to be there with
Jesus, truly present and then
being more deeply one with God
by meditating on the Father and Holy Spirit
dwelling in my graced baptized soul —
Za - Za - Zoom — How to describe knowing
the presence of God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit
in me — So big — So deep — So much —
God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit dwelling in
my graced baptized soul —
Oh and then I knew all in the Movement
united in love in my heart and
my unity with my family —
and the community, the Church, the
world, the saints, the souls in
purgatory —
ONENESS —
UNITY
HARMONY
Feeling full of love and united in
my heart —
The beatific vision in heaven
is being wrapped in the love
of Father, Son and Holy Spirit
knowing love, perfection
Being full of grace
Being full of His life —
Seeing with this knowledge of God —
experiencing perfect love in heaven!!!
Knowing oneness —
When we read this Gospel we
see Jesus teach us about the
oneness of Jesus and the Father.
But this knowledge of the
3 Persons of the Trinity in one
God is a mystery —
and we know the word in
our hearts —
No one can ever explain in words,
it is a 'living' in Him —
it is living the Word —
it is intimacy with the Persons
of the Trinity and
knowing the oneness of God —
The Trinity dwelling in our
graced, baptized soul —
Oh it is knowing God —
It is knowing harmony as He desires —
It is embracing the truth —
There is one way —
It is God's will —
Like a golfer they can hit to the
right, the left — be short —
in the woods
in the water
in the trees
etc. — etc. —
It is seeing the goal —
intimacy with God —
It is loving because God is love —
It is doing the Father's will —
Not living in the trees, the woods,
the water, the sand wondering
why we hit our life over
there when God's truth is the
rudder —
His Plan the way —
Our hearts living to be filled
with His life and more and more
loving, united, harmonious
is what we are to be
like the Heart of Christ —
Only we can choose His way of love —
We can give up the chance to see through
His eyes and be a winner —
when we take our focus off of
the goal He set and created us
for —
Happiness is in Him —
Happiness is in having a heart like
Christ
Be a winner, not a loser
Only in choosing life, fighting
for God's Plan will we
be the winner we can be —
Living in Him —
Prayer for Union with Jesus
Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart.
I am Yours to possess. I am Yours to use. I want to be selfless and only exist in You. Help me to spoon out all that is me and be an empty vessel ready to be filled by You. Help me to die to myself and live only for You. Use me as You will. Let me never draw my attention back to myself. I only want to operate as You do, dwelling within me.
I am Yours, Lord. I want to have my life in You. I want to do the will of the Father. Give me the strength to put aside the world and let You operate my very being. Help me to act as You desire. Strengthen me against the distractions of the devil to take me from Your work.
When I worry, I have taken my focus off of You and placed it on myself. Help me not to give in to the promptings of others to change what in my heart You are making very clear to me. I worship You, I adore You and I love You. Come and dwell in me now.
-God's Blue Book, January 17, 1994
Colossians 1: 15-20
He is the image of the unseen God,
the first–born of all creation,
for in him were created all things
in heaven and on earth:
everything visible
and everything invisible,
thrones, ruling forces,
sovereignties, powers—
all things were created through him
and for him.
He exists before all things
and in him all things hold together,
and he is the Head of the Body,
that is, the Church.He is the Beginning,
the first–born from the dead,
so that he should be supreme in every way;
because God wanted all fullness
to be found in him
and through him
to reconcile all things to him,
everything in heaven
and everything on earth,
by making peace through his death
on the cross.
Jesus: I am the Bridegroom
of your soul —
I love you so much!

R. The pains of the heart can be
so bad that a person shuts down
their heart, but we are to be the
best that we can be as
God calls us —
To be the best we can
be — to admit the pains
of the heart, but not to dig
a hole and pull everyone
around us in our hole with us —
God calls us to live —
God calls us to give —
God calls us to love —
God is with us — we are
to be one with Him —
When I was 5 my mom
died and that is what
happened — I had to live
with that —
My mom was holy — God
called her home —
She gave me life —
She gave Fr. Joe life —
God calls us to live —
to give —
to love —
We were born for a purpose —
Created by God —
God wants us in heaven with
Him for all eternity —
Life is short —
We have only so many days
to give to others
as God intends us to —
Babies grow up —
They can't stay babies
young men grow old
and then they die
It is God's plan for us
to be courageous in
our vocation —
to follow God's call for us —
Our heart is meant for love —
It doesn't die if one
person is our life leaves
or dies —
We can punish ourselves and
others far more than anybody
can punish us and we blame others for
a 2 minute thing somebody did —
A person punishing themselves,
not forgiving turns our
life to misery —
People get sick and die everyday —
Everybody is born and everybody
dies —
We will lose our loved
ones —
People all over the world are
divorced by people who
betrayed them —
a person losing someone
is not alone —
Parents die, babies die,
brothers and sisters die —
Some people killed in accidents —
Some people commit suicide —
Life is precious and is to be
lived and we are to not
close ourselves down —
All over the world people
lose people —
But God gave us life and
wants us in heaven
with Him forever —
I know my mom is in heaven —
Fr. Carter is in heaven —
Heaven is in the Plan
of the Father —
He wants us to go
to heaven —
We are to love, to give —
to be like Jesus —
We will not be on this earth
forever —
We are winners when we stay
focused on the goal —
We prepare for the goal —
We are to love —
We must stay focused —
Work together as a team —
On God's team —
When attacked we don't
open the door wide to
satan in anger and jealousy
and envy and pride —
our goal is heaven —
A person can punish everybody
because they were hurt —
What about all the people
we are to love, if we
cripple under one loss
and hurt others — denying
our behavior and
neglecting to do what God wants —
not doing God's will,
but rebelling against
God's plan for us —
we will have a lot of misery,
disharmony, darkness we fill inside
because we are opposing God
and what He wants.
God gives us to each other
to share, not to possess
or hold onto each other slavishly —
When all are doing God's will
in a community, family,
a team — it makes
a powerful team —
The Trinity is the most perfect
community —
God gives us the sacraments —
God wants us to live our vocation —
God gives us each other and
sometimes people we
love die young or
betray us, we have to
work in our vocation and
work through the bitter
grief —
God loves us so much and
He gives us people to help us
grow —
Jesus is the greatest teacher —
We can rebel against the
guides God sends us and
say we know it all ourselves —
We can have faith in God —
Digging a hole and crawling
in is being in a hole —
We can start winning today —
staying focused on God's Plan —
Working with the people God
put us with in love —
God wants us to not be in competition,
but work as a team with
different talents and different
capabilities —
When a person dies — It feels
as if all stops outside a
Church, as all focus on
the funeral —
Life goes on outside the
Church —
Babies grow up — get old and die
Life is letting go
and growing in Him for our
reward in heaven —
Let go and love —
Work God's plan —
Don't rebel against it and give
into satan's plan —
There will be autumns and
summers and winters and springs
after we are gone
3Excerpt from Priestly Newsletter 1998 - ISSUE FOUR
Shortly before he was to die from cancer, Joseph Cardinal Bernardin left us these inspiring words about peace: "It is the first day of November, and fall is giving way to winter. Soon the trees will lose the vibrant colors of their leaves and snow will cover the ground. The earth will shut down, and people will race to and from their destinations bundled up for warmth. Chicago winters are harsh. It is a time of dying.
"But we know that spring will soon come with all its new life and wonder.
"It is quite clear that I will not be alive in the spring. But I will soon experience new life in a different way...
"What I would like to leave behind is a simple prayer that each of you may find what I have found—God's special gift to us all: the gift of peace. When we are at peace, we find the freedom to be most fully who we are, even in the worst of times. We let go of what is non-essential and embrace what is essential. We empty ourselves so that God may more fully work within us. And we become instruments in the hands of the Lord."

John 17: 1-13
After saying this, Jesus raised his eyes to heaven and said:
Father, the hour has come:
glorify your Son
so that your Son may glorify you;
so that, just as you have given him
power over all humanity,
he may give eternal life
to all those you have entrusted to him.
And eternal life is this:
to know you,
the only true God,
and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.
I have glorified you on earth
by finishing the work
that you gave me to do.
Now, Father, glorify me
with that glory I had with you
before ever the world existed.
I have revealed your name
to those whom you took from the world
to give me.
They were yours
and you gave them to me,
and they have kept your word.
Now at last they have recognised
that all you have given me
comes from you
for I have given them
the teaching you gave to me,
and they have indeed accepted it
and know for certain
that I came from you,
and have believed
that it was you who sent me.
It is for them that I pray.
I am not praying for the world
but for those you have given me,
because they belong to you.
All I have is yours
and all you have is mine,
and in them I am glorified.
I am no longer in the world,
but they are in the world,
and I am coming to you.
Holy Father,
keep those you have given me
true to your name,
so that they may be one like us.
While I was with them,
I kept those you had given me
true to your name.
I have watched over them
and not one is lost
except one who was destined to be lost,
and this was to fulfil the scriptures.
But now I am coming to you
and I say these things in the world
to share my joy with them to the full.

God Calls Us to Love
John 13:34
I give you a new commandment: love one another; you must love one another just as I have loved you.
Matthew 7:7
Ask, and it will be given to you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.
Messenger:
Dear Jesus, I stand at the door of Your Heart and knock to come in. I want entry - to be lost totally and entirely in Thee. I want to be sheltered inside of Your Heart and wrapped deeply in Your infinite love.Jesus:
I call you, child, to love. Love is rooted in Me. I gave My all for love of you. I held nothing back. Love gives freely for the good of the other. Love exists to draw the other closer to God. If your relationship with your brother in anyway separates you from God, it is not love.Love is not haughty, love does not demand its own way, love exists to lead the other to closer union with Me. I loved you to My death. I gave to you My all! I ask you to give your all for your beloved brothers. In loving them, you are loving Me. I live in your brothers. How can you love Me who you do not see, if you do not love your brother who you see.
I am the way. I am the truth. I am the life. I give that you will know Me and know how to love one another. Love your brothers as I have loved you. When they persecute you and holler every evil word against you, love them. This is My way - to lay down My life for My friends.
John 13:34
I give you a new commandment: love one another; you must love one another just as I have loved you.
Messenger:
And to those who heeded His words, their lives were lived in peace and love and they experienced joy in their hearts, for true love brings peace and true love gives joy to the heart of the beholder. It is in loving that you receive, it is in giving that you are rendered to and it is in following the way of Christ that we are led into a life of everlasting happiness.Jesus:
I have not gone. I live with you this day. I am in your brothers. Love them as I have loved you.Messenger:
And He sent them such blessings in such abundance and they knew a little of His unending mercy and love.
October 1, 1994
I Feed the Hungry Soul
Jesus:
Another person cannot feed your hungry soul. You search, you seek. Your starved soul craves only that which I can give. When your heart is searching for love, come, My sweet dear child, into My Heart. My Mother will take you to the deepest recesses of My Heart. There you will know such comfort - in My Heart on fire for love of you this day.You are a child of dignity. You are precious to Me. You are the creation of the Father. I gave the last drop of My blood for you. This is love - you need grace to realize the immenseness of God's love. You are so special to God, all three Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Mary loves you so much.
You can never be satisfied on this earth. If you find the dearest mother, father, lover, friend, they will not fill you with the love your soul craves. To find Me is to seek Me. You will not be satisfied on this earth.
You, My child, experience longing for My intense love. I love you to want Me. This is how I long for love of each precious soul. I long for them with the most tender Heart, beating and breathing with fire. I never falter. I never grow dim. I am the same, with the same burning love. Come to Me and jump into My precious Heart. I love you so much.
October 2, 1994
You Are the Father’s Creation
Jesus:
I come to you in one another. Let not your hearts be hard, let your hearts be as little children, tender and pure. They do not hold grudges, they love each other, they love themselves.You are the creation of My beloved Father. You were created with such dignity and love. I died for you. I gave My life that you would share My life. Oh, My child, pray to the Holy Spirit to open your eyes, to let you see where you are blind, to open your hearts to the ways of God. Pray to Him to sanctify you.
You are called to be Christ to one another. Your hearts have turned hard. Your ways are not My ways. My way is always to love. My ways are to give. My ways are to see in your brother the creation of the Father, so beautiful, so uniquely created.
Each child is a gift from God to this world. Each child is a gift of unique love, given by the Father. You were uniquely created. You are so loved. Pray to know your specialness to God. It is in realizing His love for you that you will love your brothers.
Messenger:
We are all brothers in Christ. God is our Father. We are all one.Jesus:
Join, My little ones, in such love. It is in loving that you will be at peace. Love of each other creates joy in your hearts. Pray for the grace to know and love God more. It is in this knowledge and God's love that you will be My light that shines in the darkest night.I am the Way, I am the Truth. I am the Life! To live in Me you must come to know and love Me. Follow My ways. My ways are the ways of truth. My ways are not always the easy way, they are the ways of love.
If you are to be joined in your hearts, you must love every man. Every man is your brother. You must put on Christ in all your ways. Would Christ act as you are acting?
I love you so much. It is in meditating on My love for you that you will love your brothers.
I put you on this earth to love one another. Pray to the Spirit to know My ways. I am Jesus, Son of the Living God. I truly come to bring you new life. It is in Me you will have the light of life. I love you so, the Father loves you so, the Spirit wants to live in your hearts and make you alive with the love of God. Pray to Mary to lead you through her loving heart into such love of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
My child, come to My ever burning Heart. I do not love you one moment and forget you the next. I am forever burning brightly for you. I never falter. I am forever on fire for love of you. If you forget Me, I never ever forget you, I love you so much.
October 4, 1994
These Messages Need to Circulate
Jesus:
My dear children, I tell you to listen to Me here. I am delivering messages for all to be read and distributed. Souls need to read these messages. Your Center will grow in love of Me when you circulate these messages. I ask. You have a free will. These are My letters of love to all. They are not being read. I deliver these messages to you to deliver to My faithful ones. Please, I beg you to circulate My messages. What more do I say to you!This world is moving further and further from Me. I control your every breath. Do you think you are independent of He Who keeps you alive, second by second?
You do not know how truly frail you are? You do not control the air, the water, the sun, your food. You are dependent on Me for your existence, second by second.
I am your Most loving Savior. I speak to you here. Please listen to Me. This is an urgent request. I love you so and love each hurting soul. All the Blue Books have different messages. They speak to all of you. They need to be published. I will provide the funds to see to this. Your delays are stopping the progress of so many returning to My most intimate love. I beg you, please answer My plea.

Guiding Light homily series - Reflect on the Word - Cycle B The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $15 |
|
Guiding Light homily series - Steadfast to the Son - Cycle A The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15 | ||
|
Guiding Light - Feed My Soul - Cycle C In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15 |
Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word - Cycle B At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15 |

Guiding Light - The Word Alive in Our Hearts. - Cycle A (partial) Homilies by the Reverend Joe Robinson given at St. Boniface Church in Cincinnati, Ohio. It is a tremendous honor Fr.
